IsAmbulo 20

₁Ngase ngibona ingelosi yehla ezulwini, iphethe isihluthulelo sakwalasha neketanga elikhulu ngesandla sayo. ₂Yambamba udrako*, inyoka endala, onguMhlebi noSathane, yambopha iminyaka eyinkulungwane, ₃yamphonsa-ke kwalasha, yamvalela phakathi, yamqinisa ngophawu ngaphezu kwakhe, ukuze angabe esadukisa izizwe, ize iphele iminyaka eyinkulungwane; emva kwalokho kumelwe ukuba athukululwe isikhashana.

₄Ngase ngibona izihlalo zobukhosi; bahlala kuzo, banikwa ukwahlulela; ngabona nemiphefumulo yababenqunywe amakhanda ngenxa yokufakaza ngoJesu nangenxa yezwi likaNkulunkulu, nalabo abangakhulekanga kuso isilo nomfanekiso waso, nabangamukelanga uphawu lwesilo ebunzini labo nasesandleni sabo; baphila, babusa kanye noKristu iminyaka eyinkulungwane. ₅Abafileyo ababesele kabaphila yaze yaphela iminyaka eyinkulungwane. Lokhu kungukuvuka kokuqala. ₆Ubusisiwe, ungcwele onesabelo ekuvukeni kokuqala; kulabo ukufa kwesibili akunamandla, kepha bayakuba ngabapristi bakaNkulunkulu nabakaKristu, babuse kanye naye iminyaka eyinkulungwane.

₇Nanxa isiphelile iminyaka eyinkulungwane, uSathane uyakukhululwa etilongweni lakhe, ₈aphumele ukudukisa izizwe ezisemagumbini omane omhlaba, oGogi noMagogi, azibuthele ekulweni ezimumo wazo ungangesihlabathi solwandle. ₉Zase zikhuphukela ngaphezu kobubanzi bomhlaba, zakaka ikamu* labangcwele nomuzi othandiweyo; kwehla umlilo uvela ezulwini, wazidla waziqeda; ₁₀noSathane owazidukisayo waphonswa echibini lomlilo nesibabule, lapho kukhona isilo nomprofethi wamanga; ziyakuhlushwa imini nobusuku kuze kube phakade naphakade.

₁₁Ngase ngibona isihlalo sobukhosi esikhulu esimhlophe nohlezi kuso, obuso bakhe babalekelwa yizulu nomhlaba, akutholelwanga indawo. ₁₂Ngabona abafileyo, abakhulu nabancane, bemi phambi kwesihlalo sobukhosi; izincwadi zavulwa; nenye incwadi yavulwa, ngeyokuphila; nabafileyo bahlulelwa ngalokho okulotshiwe ezincwadini njengokwemisebenzi yabo. ₁₃Nolwandle lwakhipha abafileyo ababekulo, nokufa neHayidese* kwakhipha abafileyo ababekukho, bahlulelwa yilowo nalowo njengokwemisebenzi yakhe. ₁₄Ukufa neHayidese* kwaphonswa echibini lomlilo. Lokhu kungukufa kwesibili, ichibi lomlilo. ₁₅Uma ekhona ongafunyaniswanga elotshiwe encwadini yokuphila, waphonswa echibini lomlilo.
